Beltelecom uses equipment from various manufacturers, such as ZTE, TP-Link, Huawei, and Eltex, each with its own unique management interface. A sticker with the model number, default login, and password is typically located on the bottom of the device.
It is important not to confuse the Wi-Fi network password with the password for entering the web settings interface. Administrative access Requires entering login credentials, which are often found on the same label as the wireless connection details. If you've changed these details previously and have forgotten them, you may need to reset the device to factory settings using the Reset button.

To log in, you'll need a browser. Open any modern browser, such as Chrome, Firefox, or Edge, and enter the router's IP address in the address bar. The default address for most ByFly devices is 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1After pressing Enter, the system will request authorization.
Login to the router's web interface
The authorization process is a critical step, as changing settings is impossible without it. In the window that opens, you will be prompted to enter a username and password. For ZTE and TP-Link equipment, which is widely sold to subscribers, the default login is often "" admin.

Make sure the checkbox is checked Enable WLAN. Pay special attention to the choice of range: modern routers support 2.4 GHz and 5 GHzFor older devices, 2.4 GHz is sufficient, but for higher speeds, it's better to activate 5 GHz if your gadgets support this standard.
Don't forget to save the settings with the button ApplyYour router may require a reboot for changes to take effect, especially if you changed the channel or bandwidth.
Setting up security and choosing a password
Once Wi-Fi is enabled, it's crucial to secure it. An open network allows any attacker to intercept your traffic or use your internet connection for illegal activities. Always select an encryption method in your security settings. WPA2-PSK or WPA3, if the equipment supports the new standard.

| Setting parameter | Recommended value | Description |
|---|---|---|
| SSID Name | Latin, without special characters | The network name visible in searches |
| Mode | 802.11 b/g/n/ac | Wireless communication standard |
| Channel | Auto (or 1, 6, 11) | Broadcast frequency channel |
| Security | WPA2-PSK (AES) | Data encryption type |
Some routers have a function Hide SSID (Hide network name). If enabled, the network won't appear in the list of available networks, requiring you to manually enter the name to connect. This provides a false sense of security, as experienced users will still be able to locate the network, but for home use, it can be an unnecessary complication.
